More Deception – And The Implications, To Me – are Large
|
More control by the cyber goblins.

NOW you see why most of us men send SHORT messages. Women say its because we arent using our brains, but our dicks. Some times.. yeah. that is true. But most of us men here would send 1-2 paragraph messages being COURTEOUS, RESPECTFUL, and even using spell check... all to never get a response. Or have the next blog response be "Where are the COURTEOUS, RESPECTFUL men that can spell..?" ~Linc was here.~

The "nearby" search is totally worthless if I can't eliminate the people who haven't been on in weeks or months or years. Goodbye nearby.

Or have the next blog response be "Where are the COURTEOUS, RESPECTFUL men that can spell..?" That information - the date they were last active on the website - will be hidden now. Likely, how this change will impact me, is it will be much less frequently that I take a chance, and attempt to contact someone that seems they might be someone who could be of deeper interest to me. Generally, at least on here - an introductory message to someone is met with silence. And it doesn't seem to matter how much content you write in that introductory message. That's just the way it is, and for many or most people - I expect that to only get worst... Now that people will have no idea if a profile is actually inactive, or was abandoned years ago...

More control by the cyber goblins. A direction, and path for the websites they own, and operate.

My biggest problem with the site at the moment is when using IM, you tap the button to bring up the message and instead of getting the message you get a screen that asks if you want to be a paying member, then when you try to get back to the message it gets deleted before you can read it.

There are plenty of glitches around here. It never seems to improve

Well, at first I wasn't sure if it was a glitch or not. I understand glitches will happen. But no, what I spoke of is -NOT- a glitch. It appears to me - to be a deliberate change to Friend Finder Networks websites to deceive and hide the fact that a members profile you may be looking at - is actually an inactive and/or abandoned profile. Or in other words - it doesn't have to be real - it only needs to look like it could be..

I so very strongly agree. Last visit date is essential for deciding whether or not to send a message.

I so very strongly agree. Last visit date is essential for deciding whether or not to send a message. From viewing profiles in the past, and seeing the member join date, and the last visit date - I can tell you that some people will make a profile, use it the one time - and then never come back..

Because everyone loves getting a notification that someone liked your photo or flirted with you, only for the account to show up as deleted.

From a blokes point of view....... I honestly don't think it matters if the profile is active or inactive as you won't get a reply anyway! Ha ha!

Just another dick move by CityHookups.com so new members think all these profiles are active when they're not. They don't realize or just don't care that they're screwing the paying customer with these stupid ass moves.

I contacted CityHookups.com, basically telling them what I posted above... this is the response I got..... Dear Member, Thank you for contacting us. Thank you for your email. The "Last Visit" date will no longer be displayed on member profiles which is by design. The ability to arrange search results by Distance/Last Visit/Newest Members at the top of the search area is still available, but the date itself will no longer be displayed.

Just another dick move by CityHookups.com so new members think all these profiles are active when they're not. They don't realize or just don't care that they're screwing the paying customer with these stupid ass moves. In the end though, some will come to a Friend Finder Networks website with some screwing in mind... And now they may be more likely to get that screwing - just not quite exactly in the way that they had been thinking of though....

I think you're on to something here!

Don't worry, the Social Sex Network has screwed other communication options up in other ways, too. At least for non-paying members. I hadn't been on for a couple of months (just kinda frustrated), and when I came back a month ago, I noticed the last-logged-in was gone. However, even before my "hiatus", they had changed (improved? messed-up?) Messages. Before the "improvement", I could talk to at least some of the people who had sent me messages, which I think might have been related to paying members who allowed standard members to see their profiles. But, now -- no-dice, on any type of account. Period. And that's a shame, because there are a couple of conversations that I'd like to re-engage. As for one-liners (or simple messages) it doesn't seem like that will necessarily encourage someone to respond, even if they are active. Rather than going with something brutally repetative and unoriginal like "hey, you're hot", I try to pick up on something in their profile, or a not-so-glaringly-obvious aspect of their profile pic in a 2- or 3-sentence IM, and that only engenders a response maybe 15% of the time. Maybe. Of course, being a guy on here, it is a bit of an uphill battle get the attention of a woman sometimes. Or, it's just me. ... If you have a private-mail blog post, people can still get in touch with you, however, I suspect a lot of members, especially newer members, don't know that's even a thing to look for. I mention mine right at the beginning of my profile, but the mailbox doesn't see too many comments, though a reasonable number of views. If somebody goes to your blog, they can determine, at least to some degree, by date of last post or activity, whether you're still active. That might not work for some, like me, since I don't have too many posts. The other challenging aspect is that it's just more work on the part of someone who might want to get in touch with you. Hmm. An idea just occurred -- though it may face the same handicaps as somebody using your blog to determine if you're still active. Would a short blog post, up near the top, just saying you were last on the site on such-and-such be a work-around? You wouldn't necessarily have to keep it up-to-date every single time you logged in, but maybe every 2 weeks or so. It would be manually recreating the lost functionality somewhere else in your overall presence on the site. Just in a much-less-obvious place. I've gone back-and-forth about trying a premium membership here again. It seems like the latest improvements to the site are causing me to lean in the direction of "no". -- allgud69xxx Yeah ... that's right ... I went there ..

I've noticed that a number of dating sites/ adult sites, especially this one are constantly bloated with bot profiles or "webcam girls"I have been on and off this site a number of times over the years, mostly ending with me being disappointed, that I can't even draw a real conversation with anyone.. Most passerby members wouldn't stick around, if they could see the "last date visited" this website greatly under delivers.

I noticed the same thing thing, and believe it is not one of the many other frustrating glitches. I think CityHookups.com has purposeful, nefarious intentions by doing it. Thoughts from the Garden...
